I know mothers day isn't about the gifts or expecting anything from your significant other, but for Mother's Day this year I got:
1) told Happy Mother's Day twice
2) A nap
3) a chore list
4) told there going to be no dinner made by said significant owner, so I ate grilled cheese.
And last but not least
Him saying he went to the store with the sole purpose of getting me flowers and instead got counterfeit pens for work and forgot said flowers. 😒
I just want to cry 😔

Im so sorry.
I’d be so upset.
My love language is gifts. I give gifts to show my love, and I feel most loved as well when I get gifts.
Even something simple like flowers and a card.
Even order in food. Ugh. I’m sorry. 😞

@jennatess I'm the same way! Whenever I want someone to know that I love or care about them I do something for them, like cooking dinner or anything like that.

@mar_la I wish it was that simple. He always has a way of making me feel bad for feeling certain ways. Like I said something like "are we not doing dinner or anything for mother's day? "and his response was " No. You know I didn't get to see my mother today." So my response to that was "you said you were going to go see her when you got off at 2 today. It's not my fault you didn't go see her." He replies "I didn't say it was... " 😒

@kathale95, about 3 years ago I had to say to my husband, “look, I know your love language is “words of affirmation”, and I’ll try to do better with that. BUT, I’m “gifts” we need to work on that.” So, since then he gets me fresh flowers (nothing big - just flowers from the grocery store.) to keep on my nightstand. He usually gets a new bunch every other week. And since then he’s been better about always having gifts for holidays. It’s actually good we had this conversation, because now not only is he better with me, but he’s also always prepared with gifts now for his mom and sister and family on their bdays as well!

I was told happy mother's day once... through text from my SO
I had to drive him to get himself something to eat. So I focused on the fact that I had my son and was able to even celebrate because of my son💕
I'm sorry mama! I understand how you feel

@jennatess he used to get flowers for me more often than now but that eventually stopped. And he HATES shopping for gifts. Holidays where gifts are involved are a nightmare with him, whenever we go shopping for them he just gets mad and angry because I just walk in and just grab something. Every year we fight about it and I end up having to do it all myself.

@kinnirae I'm sorry girl. Happy Mother's Day. It doesn't make any sense because when it's fathers day they want gifts and to be made food and everything else (at least mine does). The only rewarding thing about today was having my son tell me happy mother's day and tell me he loves me.

@kathale95, 😓 ugh! I definitely agree with @jennatess, I literally just made a post about this. My love language is gift exchange and his is act of service. I also had to tell me husband I understood your way of showing love but this is what’s gonna make me happy. I don’t think how your husband handled the convo was fair tho. But all I can say is communication is key. You’re clearly really sad about it and he needs to know that.
